Amanda Clarke is a professor whose research focuses on the physics of volcanic eruptions, especially short-lived, highly-unsteady explosive eruptions and dome-building systems, fluid mechanics of multiphase volcanic systems, including viscous magmas and high-Reynolds number gas/solid mixtures. Her group also invests in developing and using numerical models and laboratory experiments to understand volcanic systems, as well as eruption prediction and hazards assessment, field and satellite observation of plumes and domes to understand physical processes, volcano deformation and its role in eruption prediction.
The Clarke group also explores interpretation of pyroclastic deposits on Earth and Mars, highly-explosive basaltic volcanism, cinder cone erosion and volcanic geomorphology, eruption triggering and interaction between geologic processes (e.g., earthquake-triggered volcanic activity and the interaction between volcanic plumes and Earth’s atmosphere).
